Romantic Wearables Part II

Crystal Clear Marquis Crystal Long Beaded Dangle Earrings in Silver Filigree Trumpet Cone by FiveLittle Gems

See those? That’s how we’re starting off today’s finds. But these aren’t part of the finds. These earrings are a pair that I have been coveting for quite some time now. Why am I posting them, you ask? Because I’m showing off the work of FiveLittleGems, that’s why. But why?

A. She’s awesome.

B. SHE’S HOSTING A GIVEAWAY! Omigosh. Details of the giveaway can be found here. You know you want to win a pair of her earrings. I do.

bamboo camisole with tie up neckline by sandmaidensleepwear

First in line in part two of the Romantic Wearables series, is this gorgeous cami by sandmaidensleepwear. Not only does it look super super comfortable, but the subtle rippling along the hem gives it just the perfect touch of romance without screaming sexuality. It’s made of bamboo fiber and organic cotton so I can only imagine how soft it must be.

The panties are also available from sandmaidensleepwear, but are sold separately

Felted scarf ruffle collar - Pink Rose by galafilc

Lately I’ve been obsessed with this scarf. I’ve featured it in several treasuries and I absolutely could not resist featuring it here. I love ruffles. I love scarves. Galafilc  has created such a great item here, especially with the absolutely gorgeous gradient of pink (should I mention I also love gradients?) and the added detail of two flowers.

Ah, I can imagine how beautiful this would look against a tan cashmere coat. I need to get me one of those.

Deadwood Bloomers by SacredEmpire

If there is one thing that I am determined to have as part of my summer attire, it is these bloomers. SacredEmpire has a really unique style, and it fits exactly what I love PERFECTLY. Also, I like to theme. A lot. My summer attire revolves around black and white stripes, so I go gaga over anything with that pattern. Ask anyone.

These are especially perfect because as the description says, they are pants, shorts, and a skirt all in one! I already have several shoes I have in mind to wear with them. . .

I’ll be saving my pennies!

Clean Shaven

Good Evening! I feel like I don’t focus enough on the men of Etsy. As a woman, it’s very easy to get carried away making a wishlist for myself, but I think it’s just as important to highlight not only male artists, but items made specifically for men! The more I think about it, the more I want to have a day of the week for a man post.

Manday?

Testosterone Tuesday?

I couldn’t think of anything clever for Sunday, but here’s some stuff for men anyway.

Cocobolo Wood 24mm Silvertip Badger Shaving Brush Handle (handmade) by PCwoodcraftandPens

I have no idea how this type of shaving works (even though I’ve watched Sweeney Todd like a million times) but this shaving brush is really REALLY awesome. PCwoodcraftandPens also uses badger hair which I am not sure if it is standard or popular, but since I have never seen badger hair ANYTHING (that I know of), I took a step back and said, “whoa.”

My favourite part of this brush though has to be the natural wooden handle. I’m all for fance and elaborations, but there is something so simple and masculine about natural wood that I love.

Wostenholm Straight Razor in custom scales by JPColeStudios

Now any man out there who has the sand to shave with a straight razor has my utmost respect. Then again, I’m the type of girl who can knick her knees with a razor made of cotton balls so maybe that isn’t saying much. Point is, I think they are really classy and impressive.

JPColeStudios takes it one step further, refurbishing these old beauties and adding that gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous metal work in an intricate, yet not at all feminine design. I never pictures scroll work to be so manly!

Seriously, this is the razor of a man sporting Hessians and a cravat; a man who can wear ruffles and lace and look damn sexy doing it.

BLACK TEA and LEATHER Aftershave Lotion by Man Cave Soapworks

I never really understood the point of  aftershave nor do I have any knowledge of it’s purpose, but please. Anything leather scented is welcome in my home. Actually, it is encouraged. I have a leather car jar from Yankee Candle because leather seats weren’t enough. Aftershave or not, I’m pretty sure that if I bought this for Adam, I would probably end up stealing it for myself.

But it’s not just this. ManCave1 (Man Cave Soapworks)’s entire shop is filled with manly grooming products. In fact, it’s a no girls allowed zone! (Sorry; I was so excited I had to share! =P) I feel like so many men nowadays use the products that their wives bring home for them and just roll with it. Come on guys; bath and body isn’t just  for the ladies!

I’m not sure if I have them convinced, so ladies, treat your man to some specially-for-men-super-manly B&B products.
